Hi all,
I'm a Kate Spade newbie. I haven't ever bought Kate Spade before. This one looks fake to me, based on the price, and the fact that I can't tell if the hardware are all the same color. And I'm not sure if KS does stripes on the inside of the bag. However, I don't have a trained KS eye or anything to compare it to.

Can someone verify whether or not this is fake? I would hate to pass up a good deal, but obviously this could be too good to be true.

Thank you!

I am not a Kate Spade expert but the s and p look too close together to be authentic. Also the letters should all be the same height along the top.

You can see comparisons of real and fake labels here: http://ihatecounterfeitbags.info/katespadelabels

Since I am not an expert in Kate Spade, I am not going to report it but I have concerns. Hopefully one of our experts can weigh in before the listing ends.

I'm not an expert either but I don't see any problems. The imprint on my Kate Spades looks the same as the one ebay.

The striped lining is correct, it's called the "bookstripe" lining. Nothing in this listing raises a red flag to me, but to be sure, ask the seller for pictures of the zipper pulls (both the one on the inside zip pocket and the outside big zipper).

You aren't being ignored. I think there isn't a regular KS authenticator here any more so in my case, I'll only post if no one else responds and if I'm sure of an item.

The bag you asked about looks fine.

As far as mentioning that it was looked at and deemed authentic here, yes, you can say it but in the event of a dispute, ebay and/or paypal may require a professional paid authentication.
